Legacy
Lyrics
Um 10 years from now I would just like to have
You know, lay the lay the blueprint down that other people can follow
That come from similar situations
You know what I mean um
Elevated my team my family you know myself
And inspire you know what Im sayin
Would be the most important thing looking back 10 years from now
That I would like to see
Look what we done did equity all in my crib
But now got petty neighbors different rules where I live
I sit and I reflect on what my legacy is
And what I want it to be after when I’m no longer here
My uncles tell me that I’m dope
Looked up to em all and now they callin me the goat
I smile and tell em thank you in the midst of the cigar smoke
But told em I ain’t stoppin til my crib look like a car show Luxury wheels
Oceanaire downtown that’s a just luxury meal
Do it for my seeds and I ain’t even got no kids
Forget my first name I do it for my last name
I’m going hard like I’m finna play my last game
Today is beautiful let’s pull up at the Nats game
The Park packed it must be a Mad Max game
They hate millennials compare us to the past man
We chasin ghosts like we really playin PacMan
Ballin like LeBron & AD
Never switchin teams like KD dog Is you crazy
Come to Maryland I can show you we gettin wavy
Chillin in Annapolis like I was in the Navy But I never joined the Navy
What’s your legacy like
This a different generation we ain’t peddling white
Only thing that ain’t change is that the President white
This that expenses way lower than our revenue life
This ain’t no regular life, man what’s your legacy like
Yea uhWhat’s your legacy like
Yea uh What’s your legacy like
When your soul dead and gone boy it better be right
Want the ones I leave behind doin better for life
Want my name in the concrete forever and twice
I lived a hell of a life man what’s your legacy like
Go down Eye Street and ask em all about my greatness
Ask my clients how much tax money I done saved em
My name ring bells at Department of Education
Betsy was treating us foul I bounced find a replacement
Ask Hines and their students about AL influence
Ask the church how much better off all of the youth is
Ask the bruhz how I do it now I’m mixing the music
Behind the boards now like I’m courtside Mark Cuban Uh
What is my legacy? A Man of high integrity
I give til I can’t give no more and wont expect a thing
How many artists have I wrote for and favors Ive done
How many dollars have I charged in return? None
Scary sight that I’m just 28
And I’m not from Harlem but I’m known to make things shake
I want my great grandkids money long as a snake
And when I’m dead and gone they gon label me as a Great. What’s your legacy like
Yea uh What’s your legacy like
Yea uh What’s your legacy like
When your soul dead and gone boy it better be right
Want the ones I leave behind doin better for life
Want my name in the concrete forever and twice
I lived a hell of a life man what’s your legacy like
I've always said that I wanted to be remembered as a player that didn't waste a moment
Didn't waste a day
And uh I felt extremely blessed by the God given talent
And at the same time I didn't take it for granted at all
So if I could be remembered as a person that was born with a lot of talent
And did everything he could to try to overachieve
And live everyday as if he was the 12th guy on the bench
I think that's a very powerful message to have
Um 10 years from now I would just like to have
You know, lay the lay the blueprint down that other people can follow
That come from similar situations
You know what I mean um
Elevated my team my family you know myself
And inspire you know what Im sayin
Would be the most important thing looking back 10 years from now

Look what we done did equity all in my crib
